Debbie says that she keeps her dirty clothes in the dishwasher, washes her plates in her pool and doesn’t turn on the heat in the winter because of the recycled air. Debbie admits that her behavior is driving a wedge between her and her husband, Kelly.

“I have told my husband that if he wants to hug me, he has to take a shower and once he comes back, he’s able to touch me,” says Debbie. “It’s ruining our marriage.”
